Olympic College Nursing Class of 2012 Pinning Ceremony

Olympic College pinned their 2012
Nursing School graduates Saturday, 9 June 2012 at
Bremerton High School auditorium.
Enthusiastic family and friends filled the school and I was
surprised to see the number of nursing volunteer mentors of our
Kitsap County new nursing graduates as they were
called to stand up in recognition of their two-year scholastic
efforts.

From personal experience, I know the caring, giving nature of
the nursing staff at Harrison Medical Center but
had not realized so many Kitsap County nurses gave heartwarming
volunteer involvement with the nursing students at OC.

Proud brother, Uriah Hawkins and his son, Gabriel watches
the ceremony. Wife Christine and mother of Gabe could not attend –
she was working with patients at Harrison Medical
Center.

Josh Peglow and son, Malachi. Health care runs in this
family. Josh works with patients at Martha and Mary
Rehabilitation and Nursing Center in Poulsbo as did his wife,
Shantie before she entered the nursing program at Olympic
College.
